Since 1588, the English Royal Navy has been one of the most powerful, if not the most powerful, naval forces on the face of the planet. It helped support an empire upon which the sun never set; it fought off agressors, pirates, and the occasional upstart colonists (though it … [...] As those of you who read this weblog know, I support both evolution and creationism, so I cannot entirely agree with the image I am posting below. That said, it is funny as hell.
The image is shamelessly stolen from Peter Jensen, a friend of Better Half’s from college, … [...] Due to the spoiler-laden nature of this post, the rest of it is continued below the fold. … [...] Well, I have to admit, when I launched this weblog (or, more specifically, this domain, since my last hosting company decided to stab me in the back mid-stride), I never would have seen this day coming. I mean, I like traffic… I think any weblog or webpage writer out there likes traffic … [...] As I previously mentioned, I grabbed a few free tickets to go see Peaceful Warrior this weekend. Well, more specifically, yesterday, but since Fridays count as "weekends" when it comes to movies, I am close enough to the right ballpark to be acceptable by governmental standards. Well, go see it … [...] In light of the positively sucky few days I have been having, I thought I would share some of the humor I regularly partake in online. That is to say, I would take the lazy way out of writing a post, and simply link to all of the various online … [...] So I, along with most of the local, regional, national, and global news agencies around the world, reported a few days ago that Iranian forces in the Persian Gulf effectively kidnapped, at the point of a set of very large-caliber firearms, a group of 15 British sailors and marines. Unfortunately, Iran … [...] Like any red-blooded American, I have been watching FutureWeapons whenever I get the chance. While showing me some of the niftiest, shiniest, and neatest things that go varying degrees of boom is definitely a good thing, the unfortunate side effect is that I can have almost none of them. This … [...]
Woah! Two weeks in a row, I managed to get this thing out on time, and intact. So what articles do you have out there that are interesting to you, and you would like to share? Shoot your pings here, and let us take a look at them! … [...] Shamelessly… er… borrowed from Electric Venom. How have your political views changed since you began blogging? Hard to say. I grew up in a rather stringently-conservative family, complete with going to church every Sunday, homeschooling me because the public schools in the area were positively atrocious, Father serving in the … [...] Alright, as I said, I now consider 300 to be the yardstick for all future action movies, and a positively outstanding movie in general. However, travesty though it may be, I could not stop laughing while watching this YouTube video. You have to admit, Xerxes did look a little… … [...] As I have often professed, I really do not pay a whole lot of attention to the news. It just tends to really piss me off, get me all annoyed, and reduce my view of the world around me, and all of those things happen more than enough when I … [...] ver the course of planning for our upcoming trip, we have known about, stumbled upon, and discovered a fair number of useful sites and systems that I thought I would share with you. AAA – I have somewhat mixed feelings about this organization, as does Better Half, so I am … [...] The good news is that Better Half and I have successfully arranged accommodations for ourselves all the way across the country at this point – Sulphur, LA (in the place of Lake Charles – it turns out the latter is a gambling town, and hard to get reservations in); Decatur, … [...] This might actually be a nice little gadget well worth having yet another gadget (as if that was a cost). I have to admit, even with a Tivo, my reaction time is sufficiently slow that I still get hammered with about half a second of the 200% decibel increase commercials … [...] So, I admit, this is a somewhat cheap way of avoiding having to write anything substantiative today. I am lazy. Deal with it.

[...] Alright, so let me preface this with a few comments. First, I do not, in any way, support Barak Obama. While he appears to be one of the more moderate Democrats out there, he still supports universal health care, abolishment of estate tax cuts, pulling out of Iraq without providing … [...] I am not one who normally goes in for self-help, personal advancement, "seven habits", how-to-make-yourself-better style books/television shows/movies/etc…. I guess I am not yet mature enough to recognize their value, and still view them as condescending attempts at making people feel bad about themselves, while providing a "solution", and thus … [...]
Holy flying carp on a stick, I finally got one of these things posted and online… on time. Or at least, on the date on which I had been planning to do these things all along. Oh well. No one ever said I was good at keeping schedules. Ping … [...]  |
